SEVENTEEN | SICKFICS - HURTFICS I

Junhui | Lightning Part I

The morning sun streamed through the windows of the dorm where Seventeen was preparing for their music video shoot. The energy was high, but the members knew that they had to be focused. Seungcheol stood at the front of the room, holding a clipboard and giving his usual authoritative but caring look.

"Alright, everyone! Let's get moving! We've got a long day ahead," Seungcheol called out, his voice cutting through the chatter. "Shower schedule is up on the board, so make sure you're ready when it's your turn. We need to be on time."

Mingyu, lounging on the couch, stretched lazily. "I'm always ready," he teased, flashing a grin at Seungcheol.

"Don't push it, Mingyu." Seungcheol replied, his eyes narrowing playfully. "Now, let's move!"

The shower schedule was first on the agenda.

"Jeonghan, you're up first," Seungcheol said, pointing at him as he walked past the list.

Jeonghan looked up from his phone. "Alright, alright," he sighed with mock annoyance, but his smile betrayed him as he stood up. "I was hoping I'd get to chill a little longer, but fine, fine."

As Jeonghan went to take his turn in the shower, Joshua, who was sitting nearby, turned to Seungcheol.

"Is there any chance we could take a quick break before we start shooting? You know, catch our breath?" Joshua asked.

Seungcheol shook his head. "Not today. We need to be efficient. Everything's timed."

Joshua gave him an exaggerated pout. "You're no fun."

"I'm plenty of fun, just not when it's crunch time," Seungcheol responded with a wink.

Meanwhile, in the corner, Woozi was already unpacking his bag, laying out the items he planned to bring along for the shoot.

"I have my snacks, my water, my backup clothes, and... oh, I almost forgot the schedule!" Woozi muttered to himself, double-checking his things. "Can't afford to miss a thing."

Dino walked up to him, glancing at Woozi's neatly packed items. "Are you sure you need all that stuff? You're just going to change clothes a few times. What else are you bringing?"

"Not sure if you've noticed, but I always come prepared," Woozi replied, lifting an eyebrow. "I need my snacks. I get cranky without them."

Dino chuckled. "I should probably bring some too, then."

As Jeonghan came out of the shower, the next in line was Hoshi. He had already been bouncing around with his usual energy, and he was more than ready for his turn.

"Seungcheol hyung, I'm going in!" Hoshi called out loudly, earning a few groans from the other members.

"Go ahead, Hoshi," Seungcheol said with a smile, "But try to keep it down. You're already a walking workout for the rest of us."

Hoshi grinned. "Aren't I just too much for you?" he teased, grabbing his towel and heading to the bathroom.

In the meantime, Seungkwan was sitting by the couch, sipping his coffee and flipping through his phone.

"Hey, do you think we'll get any time to practice the choreography more today?" he asked, looking at DK who was busy sorting his things out.

DK shrugged. "Maybe later, if we get a break, but we'll see. I'm sure we'll be fine. We've been rehearsing for days."

Seungkwan gave him a skeptical look. "You always say that, but you know I get nervous without a little last-minute review."

On the other side of the room, Jun was adjusting his hair in the mirror, already in costume for the shoot.
